For BBY0- Dance

The increasing importance of the youth and young adult
council on the American Jewish communal scene was de-
scilbed by Arnulf M. Pins, president of the National Jewish
Youth ConferCnce, at a rally of young adults sponsored by the
Detroit Jewish Young Adult Council last Sunday evening.
Detroit's Council is one of 300 now in existence, Pins told

the close to 200 young people as-
sembled at the Jewish Center.

Pins also sketched the qualifi-
cations for a good youth council.
It should be a representative
cross-section of Jewish youth, he
said, and should have good lead-
ership, 'professional • advice, an
adequate budget, a means of pub-
licity and a working relationship
with the adult community. He
emphasized the need for adult
support of the youth council, both
financially and by adult recogni-
tion of youth achievements, and
urged that the young people find
ways to work together with the
adults.
